Diary – James Losh – 12 Aug 1831
When I reached home I found a letter from Brackenridge with an account of Mrs. B's death. What effect this may have upon my income I do not know, but notwithstanding Beaumont's apparent friendship and regard for me, I certainly consider my Auditorship as somewhat precarious. I much fear the old Lady's death will not increase the comfort or prosperity of her family, tho' certainly she was neither a wise nor an amiable woman.
Diary – James Losh – 14 Aug 1831
I had a short but very friendly letter from Beaumont requesting me to meet him at Breton as soon as his health will permit him to travel.
Diary – James Losh – 27 Aug 1831
I had a letter from Beaumont today of the most confidential kind, but still I fear that when he finds his income much less than he expected, he may think he can do without an Auditor. Were I merely his Auditor, perhaps he would be right, but with his habits, a person of some experience and of integrity is quite essential to any tolerable management of his affairs.
Diary – James Losh – 31 Aug 1831
I had a letter from Beaumont expressing great anxiety about his affairs and wishing me to meet him in London.
Diary – James Losh – 1 Sep 1831
Mr. Donkin and I have nearly the same views of Mr. Beaumont's situation and I think if he can be persuaded to act reasonably, his affairs may be satisfactorily arranged without much difficulty.

Diary – James Losh – 29 Dec 1831
Business with Beaumont at Bywell where I dined and staid all night. Nothing could be more kind and confidential than Beaumont's communications with me. He disclosed to me all his plans in strict confidence, viz. his determination to dismiss the Crawhalls and all his present agents except Johnson. His intention to place my son James in the situation of Auditor etc., and his resolution not to sell Bywell etc. He also consulted me as to his conduct as to the County representation, and d
Diary – James Losh – 3 Feb 1832
Re son James becoming Beaumont's Auditor. I shall be quite content with my 100 guineas a year for holding the courts and going to London once a year if required.
Diary – James Losh – 6 Feb 1832
With his usual impetuosity, Beaumont seems to have taken a step which must cause an immediate rupture with Mr. Crawhall. He gives me the same account as James did of their interview and speaks candidly and fairly enough of that subject. His wish to see me in London arises from his not knowing how to act with respect to Crawhall.
Diary – James Losh – 22 Feb 1832
I had today a long letter from Beaumont written in a more business-like style than usual. I fear, however, that he is pursuing a very doubtful course in his affairs, and that James will not have a very pleasant (perhaps not a permanent) office as his Auditor.
Diary – James Losh – 16 Mar 1832
I saw Lord Howick on the Railroad business and had also a good deal of conversation with him on the subject of Emigration. He appears to me to be a clear headed man of business, and tho' I know his manners are said to be cold and repulsive, I never found him otherwise than frank and even attentive and civil. I had a good deal of talk with W.Ord relative to the Northumberland elections ec. I dined and drank some coffee with Beaumont and Mrs. B. and Miss Atkinson, her sister.
Diary – James Losh – 24 Mar 1832
Most part of the morning I passed with Beaumont and Mr. Hodgson (his new agent).
Diary – James Losh – 10 Apr 1832
I saw Mr. Mulcaster and arranged the terms upon which he is to give up his present situation as Mr. Beaumont's Agent.
Letter – John Fonblanque to John Scott – 7 May 1832
The late Miss Scott appears by the will of Mrs Hunter to be intitled as residuary legatee to the whole of her personal Estate after payment of her debts &co & as Mrs Hunter was under the will of her Husband intitled not only to an annuity of £50 & his Household Furniture but also to the Interest of one moiety of the Produce of his real & personal Estate & as it is admitted that Mrs H. received only the anny. & the Furniture the personal representative of Miss Scott has i
Letter – M Bell to John Bell – 8 May 1832
Dear John,
Since writing my other <letter> a Gentleman called here from old Fonblanque the Chancery Barrister to get me to enquire of you wher. the present Isaac Hunter recd. any <……..> sum of money from the Exrs. of his Father as the or one of the residuary Legatees.
I find he is enquiring on the part of Mr Scott the bror. of Miss Scott – he says Mrs Hunter had £50 p an: left her which was hardly paid, and I imagine he supposes she was a residuary Legatee.

London 11 May 1832
41 Upper Berkeley Street West Connaught Square
Sir,
Your letter of the 29th July 1826 in which you were so kind as to send my sister a £1 Bank of England note I duly answered through a Servt. who was to get it franked to you for me, and my not having heard from you for so many years makes me fear that it may not have reached you.
My sister is dead – she died the June following of Dropsy & I took care that she should not want for anythi
Letter – James Losh to Henry Grey – 12 May 1832
May 12, 1832
When I wrote to you very hastily yesterday, I did not recollect that there was last night no post from this place to London. I have now seen Headlam, Mr. J. Fenwick and many of your other friends in Newcastle and have the greatest reason to believe that Lord Grey is, if possible, more popular than he was before his resignation. I have also seen a good many of the solicitors ec and I think I can venture to say that should there be a Dissolution, you and Mr. Beaumont wi

Letter – Wladyslaw Zamoiski to Charles Grey – 14 Jul 1832
14 July, 16 Wilton Street
My dear Lord Grey
Evidence of interest from your part in favour of Poland is truly of the greatest price in my eyes so that I cannot prevent myself from renewing the request to urge your presence at Stafford House tomorrow morning. Your appearance if only for a moment would be a great favour for which all those who support Poland will be very appreciative.
I could count in this number my uncle to whom I would be so proud to be able to announce it
